Thumbtacks posted:Yeah, I found that out. From pls Yeah I've caught quite a few people as they hit me after I started the powerstance jump but if they hit me before the windup finishes I get staggered. (I probably need more poise  )Unfortunately it's not long enough but you can still catch people that didn't bother to roll away. Or try to roll towards you, I love the tracking on the MGS. I'm still disappointed we didn't get the Karate moveset in this DLC, despite the regular fists usually working alot better. Here's hoping there are more cool weapons to obsess over in the third DLC.

I'm hoping it's in the final DLC. A world in which I cannot shoot hadokens at hollows (without cheating) is a sad world indeed.

Recollection is insanely underwhelming. All of them hitting the same guy did less than one dark orb to the same guy. Closer range than dark orb too, with soul spear's wind-up.

They seem to have taken notice that people like weapons with unique, non-copypaste movesets when you consider things like Puzzle Sword, Sanctum Mace, Majestic Greatsword, Smelter Hammer, etc etc with all kinds of fun animations. However the heihachi set does not feel very complete. Hopefully they will polish it if they do release it, and if it's not released I'm sort of ok with that too. Though if it was going to be in any DLC, it would have been this one because of the OIK's weeaboo factor. Finally got the second part of my NG+3 playthrough up. turtlecrunch fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Aug 29, 2014 |

Is there a mechanical difference between when your stamina goes down so much that the difference is yellow and when it goes down without the yellow bit? Other than when it turns yellow it's a bigger drop, I guess.

I assume no, the yellow just emphasizes a larger drop in stamina with a visual representation, just so you can go "Oh poo poo, blocking that hit drained me"

People were thinking it would be in this DLC because you can sometimes catch the Alonne Captains do an unarmed punch that looks similar to one of the punches in the martial arts moveset. I can't find a video for it but they rarely use it.

Anyone got advice/words of wisdom for rapier PVP beyond 'parry them, stoopid'? My attacks seem to be very easily avoided due to the angle of attack, and I can't seem to make any real progress. My occasional wins are barely that.

Leo Ring Ring of Blades Flynn's Ring Stone Ring too maybe? It's pretty OP right now. Anyway at least equip the Leo Ring if you're not already. Don't attack first. Even if they're waiting for you to attack, don't. Get good a backstep timing.

It doesn't technically do either, they lose almost no stamina and they can roll away when they're done getting hit. It's like getting hit by a lovely soul spear barrage. You can combo into it REALLY easily if you're fast but otherwise it does basically nothing.

She supposedly had dialogue in the files but it's gone now? Laughed at you and went into her 'other' voice briefly, apparently.Stokes posted:Leo Ring Got all those rings! Guess it's just me being too aggressive. I'll throw the ball in their court then. Kinda hampering myself, really. Most of my PVP is done via summons and I can't bring myself to take advantage of surprise/camouflage/mobs, etc, unless I actually invade. I am the worst red phantom.

The last door that opens to the Shaded Woods is stuck closed in my game. I can't pull either lever, nothing happens. This is on a no death no bonfire run that I'm doing pretty well on so I can't just warp between Bonfires. I've tried running a few areas away then coming back but it's still stuck. Has anyone encountered this?

Use the estoc instead and swap your leo ring for life ring +3 or 3rd dragon ring or something. The rapier's relative lack of length really lets it down, and once you're only looking at 120 counter damage the old leo ring isn't so tempting (plus the estoc 1hr1 is amazing and doesn't benefit from it).

Welp, I get a cracked eye orb on my dex dude, I decide to use it, first thing I encounter is a hacker using machine gun dark orbs. Cool. Also, the Lost Bastille's skybox is broken again.

It sends you back to a (still unlit) Majula bonfire. I haven't checked if it respawns things but that could work.

Wait, the Estoc doesn't get Leo damage? And but I wanna do a dex buuuuuuuuild, Mom! But, agh, guess I can just infuse it or something to make the strength scaling redundant.

poptart_fairy posted:Wait, the Estoc doesn't get Leo damage? Estoc doesn't get Leo bonus on its 1handed r2 since that does slashing, and leo only benefits thrust. And while the Estoc is quite nice, you're much better off with the rapiers with good counter bonuses, since counter hits are what rapiers are best at. So Rapier early on, Espada Ropera, or Ricard's Rapier.
